- About Me
- I have had alopecia since I was 5 years old. It has been a long journey of acceptance. I am married, have 2 dogs and 1 cat. I moved to Arizona in 1985 from Illinois. Growing up with alopecia has been a challenge and definitely effected my self esteem. I had no support of any kind going thru grade school and high school. I remember praying for a miracle. God must have a plan for me. Now, I am so grateful that I can finally talk to others who truly understand. It's great knowing you are not alone.
I also have to mention I LOVE coffee!!

Hi Nancy, I've just discovered your comment from 2010. I'm sorry not to detect it sooner. I hope you're feeling great and enjoying everything around you. :)
So good to hear from you, and it has been ages! I'm bald as ever and like you, rarely go out without my wig, the exception being when I'm driving on the highway wearing a floppy hat until the destination is reached. Then the wig goes back on:). It's hot here now too!
My husband, Don, died in April of 2011, after battling severe emphysema for almost 8 years. This year after joining a Madison social group for widows and widowers, a couple of gentlemen came into my life. It's been a challenge with the wigs (mine being a Freedom wig, also expensive) but the one I've decided to continue seeing is extremely supportive.
I miss everyone. We have an active group forming in the Milwaukee area but every one has been when there's been a conflict here...grrrr. I started a group on Alopecia World called "Alopecians in Wisconsin" which I hope will help others in the area.
Stay in touch; I hope the husband and dog are still doing well.
((Hugs)) Susan
I just worry all the time about her fitting in. Every mom wants their child to be accepted. I am just afraid she wont be. She knows she is loved and she feels good about herself. I will pray for the best. I will definitely keep you posted.

Thanks, for letting me know about NBO Sunday. Sorry for the delayed reply, I haven't been on in a while as the kids were out of town with their grandmother. We think we can make it for NBO Sunday. Best to you and yours.

How have you been? I've missed you!! How's your sister? I was wearing one of the bandanas she gave me the other day and it made me think of you and how much I miss everyone. I wasn't able to go to the conference this year because I had to cancel last minute due to my daughter being in a car accident. She's recovering slowly but surely. I saw your pic on Felicia's profile and I was so excited!!! It's nice to see you here. Hope all is well with you and your family. Love and miss you much!!!
Love and Hugs,
Dotty
Yes, we did meet at the Bald Girls Do Lunch. I look forward to seeing you again, too!
Jackie :)
